The program was created in partnership with Tea Room Chef Carolyn Geiger. She began her career working as a chef at Milan Bakery on Fremont Street. After nearly 12 years, she was introduced to the world of tea and has never looked back. Her passion comes from operating her own tea room, Market Tea Room which opened in 2006. Today, she works alongside the talented team at Andre’s to create their afternoon tea program, blending the delicate flavors of tea with their award-winning French tavern menu.
“My love for tea came very natural once I began learning about the multitude of health benefits that come with drinking it. The more I started to drink and explore different teas and researched the benefits it can have on the body, it became a sort of obsession,” says Carolyn Geiger, tea room chef, Andre’s Bistro & Bar.
